An Tir Roll of Arms

The An Tir Roll of Arms is a volunteer project, created at the behest of then Black Lion Principal Herald Marco Valentino.

The Roll was created by Frederic Badger serving at the whim of their majesties as Courroune Rouge Herald. The current Courrone Rouge Herald is Vémundr Syvursson.

The site contains the majority of the registered arms of the residents of the Kingdom of An Tir, and serves as a resource for the Kingdom.

An Tir's items from the November 2021 Letter, published today 8 January 2021, have been added to the Roll of Arms.

This same day turnaround was possible because the Letter held a grand total of ONE new entry for the Roll of Arms! There was also a request for an update of an existing entry, with the art sent in by email and requiring minimal editing. Super easy month!

Hopefully things get a bit busier as 2022 rolls onward.

The Mid-Year Known World Heraldic & Scribal 2022 is coming up next weekend, January 14-16 2022 via Zoom. Details, schedule and class descriptions at the link. Pre-reg is required and closes Wednesday 1159 GMT, which is 1600 (4 PM) Wednesday afternoon Pacific Standard Time for most of An Tir. Lots of great sessions scheduled, it should be a really great event!

The An Tir items from the October 2021 Letter, released December 10 2021, have been added to the Roll.

Only three new items, and one correction pointed out to me by another Herald, for a fairly quiet month.

A reminder that Mid-Year Known World Heraldic & Scribal 2022 is happening January 14-16 2022 on Zoom, only a month away now! Should be a good weekend, lots of good heraldic and scribal classes, panels, and presentations to choose from.

An Tir's items from the September 2021 Letter of Acceptances & Returns, released on 15 November 2021, have been added to the Roll of Arms.

A relatively slow month with five new entries, no updates to existing entries, and nothing sent to me by email.

The delay in uploads was due to our first local event since August happening this last weekend, the Barony of Seagirt's Winternights gathering! So nice to have an in-person event to look forward to, even if my local duties did cause my Kingdom duties to have to slip a bit. On a personal high point, Winternights saw Their Royal Highnesses Tir Righ give me a Silver Pillar, Tir Righ's Principality award for service!

Speaking of events, Mid-Year Known World Heraldic & Scribal 2022 is happening January 14-16 2022 over Zoom. Although it is hoped that the full KWHSS will be able to return to an in-person event in West Kingdom in summer 2022, the Society-wide College of Arms is also intending to keep the vKWHSS going. Already lots of interesting class proposals submitted for both heraldic and scribal, and it should be a great virtual event.

The August 2021 Letter of Acceptances & Returns, published 14 October 2021, has been added to the Roll of Arms.

This Letter had most of An Tir's submissions that were done via the 1st Virtual Herald's Point back in February, so it was a busy one! Ten brand new entries, three updates to existing devices, and two name changes from the Letter, plus one new entry who has moved here from Caid to round out the month.

One registry this month that caught my eye was Eleanor de Bolton's Augmentation of Arms. An Augmentation is a very rarely given honour here in An Tir so it's a treat to see Her Grace's displayed here on the Roll.


Her Grace's registered Augmentation of Arms is, as far as I can tell, only the fourth registered in An Tir and only the sixth displayed here on the An Tir Roll, four registered here in An Tir, and one each from Caid and the West (before An Tir was a Kingdom!). An Tir has awarded around thirty Augmentations of Arms, total, in our entire history as a Kingdom.
